Town's U18s play their first game of 2009 on Saturday morning when they travel to Arsenal's Hale End academy to take on the young Gunners (KO 10.45am).

The Blues will be looking for a promising performance ahead of Tuesday's fourth round FA Youth Cup tie against Crystal Palace at Portman Road (KO 7pm). If the Town youngsters defeat the Eagles, they'll face Watford at home in the fifth round.

A Ronan Murray penalty gave the Blues a 1-0 home victory over Shrewsbury Town in the third round.
